From ohms law, I = V/R hence Voltage and Resistance can affect the value of current, both peak and average.
Also with a rectifier circuit other factors can affect the peak current such as frequency and capacitance

i think average value of current in ac current is zero.
The root-mean-square value is 0.707 times the peak value, for a sinusoidal voltage or current. Angle doesn't come into it.
It is the highest value of the amplitude, called the peak value. Scroll down to related links and look at "RMS voltage, peak voltage and peak-to-peak voltage". Look at the figure in the middle below the headline "RMS voltage, peak voltage and peak-to-peak voltage".
You don't say whether you're looking for the peak value of voltage or current.-- The peak value of the sine is ' 1 ', so the peak voltage is 17 volts.-- You haven't mentioned whether the load is complex or all real,so naturally I'll assume it to be all real. Then the peak current is 17 volts/68 ohms = 0.25 amp.
Peak to Peak is the most positive peak to the negative peak value. Or find any peak value and multiply by 2.
RMS is the root mean square value.(in alternating current only)
Not sure what you mean by Class A current. Normally, when measuring AC voltage or current you either measure the peak to peak value or the Root Mean Squared (RMS) value. Since RMS is essentially an average measured over time, it would always be less than Peak to Peak value.
Average Current = 0.636 * (Peak Current)so Peak Current = (Average Current)/0.636RMSCurrent = 0.707 * (Peak Current)so Peak Current = (RMS Current)/0.707Because both equations are in terms of Peak Current, we can set them equal to each other.(Average Current)/0.636 = (RMS Current)/0.707(42.5)/0.636 = (RMS Current)/0.707thenRMS Current = (0.707)(42.5)/0.636 = 47.24 ampsAnother AnswerSince the average value of a single sine wave is zero, you cannot calculate its r.m.s. value!
i think average value of current in ac current is zero.
The root-mean-square (rms) value of a sinusoidal voltage or current is given by: Vrms = 0.707 Vmax and Irms = 0.707 ImaxSo, if the current has a peak-to-peak value of 10 A, then Imax will be half that value (5 A) , so the corresponding rms value is:Irms = 0.707 Imax = 0.707 x 5 = 3.54 A(Answer)
The Alernating Current can be compared to a Direct Current using the AC's Root Mean Square value. That is about .707 times the Peak value, or the sin of 45 times the peak value or, 1 over the square root of two times the peak value. All three are the same essentially. This RMS value is like the average current or voltage that the load see's throughout one cycle.
The rms value of a sine wave current is 0.707 Imax. So the answer to your quesion is 0.707 x 4 = 2.83 A.
RMS is used to determine the average power in an alternating current. Since the voltage in an A/C system oscillates between + and -, the actual average is zero. The RMS or "nominal" voltage is defined as the square root of the average value of the square of the current, and is about 70.7% of the peak value.************************************************************The r.m.s. value of an alternating current or voltage is the value of direct current or voltage which produces the same heating effect.Fo a sine wave, the r.m.s. value is 0.707 x the peak value.The average value is different; for a sine wave it is 0.636 x the peak value.
The root-mean-square value is 0.707 times the peak value, for a sinusoidal voltage or current. Angle doesn't come into it.

You are, presumably, referring to alternating current, in which case the 'maximum' current is the peak or amplitude of the waveform. The 'average' value of current is zero, because the average value of the first half of each cycle is negated by the average value over the second half of each cycle. This is why a.c. currents and voltages are always expressed in 'root-mean-square' (r.m.s.) values which is the value of an a.c. current that does the same amount of work as a given value of d.c. current. The r.m.s. value for a sinusoidal current (and voltage, as voltage and current are proportional) is 0.707 times the peak or maximum value.
